Dear Ms. Kidman... You Made a Bad Choice...

Well, I guess she may spend oodles of money on the best clothes, get warm and fuzzy with the press, have the top of the line plastic surgery and buy the best husband, and where does that get Nicole? Nowhere. You see, Nicole honey, you are nothing more than an aging, sad, pathetic woman, afraid of aging, starring in one flop after another, and controlling your husband’s every move.

I thought at first, two years ago this week in fact, that she knew what she was doing. While her one true love was jumping on couches over a woman many years his junior, Nicole was out making movies and embarking on a public PR affair with someone many women wanted. Now, after her first contracted marriage ended, many felt sorry for her. Well, he just left her.

Because he was afraid of losing his wealth to her? He grew tired of her? All he said was "Nic knows." She won an Oscar for her divorce. She was on the fast track. But her PR wasn't that terrific. Yes, she had the occasional boyfriend and she made more movies, but neither of those outlets led to her being put in the superstar league she was in when she was half of a Hollywood power couple.

It seemed by 2005, Nicole Kidman was still considered a great beauty but as an actress it wasn't adding up. She had the occasional hit, The Others, but for that one hit there were seven flops. She wasn't a first choice by many directors. The world had gone more so in favor of celebrity. It didn't matter what you did it was who you are, and all Nicole was by 2005 was a former Oscar winner and ex-wife of one of the most powerful players in Hollywood. But she pressed on. I think she realized that as she was growing older. Her work became all that she had and her work was inadequate. She needed to be shown as “above” the regular actor fray. She wanted respect and she wanted to be sexy. Throw her true love’s new hot romance at her and she knew she had to do something.

Enter Keith Urban. Talented, sexy, desirable. Well she worked her magic. She got him. Damn the torpedo's full speed ahead....

The problem, dear Nicole, was that you didn't figure out that Hollywood doesn't really want you. You aren't the hot sure thing. Your husband is quite ill. He had demons not well known until you got involved with him but they were there. You are aging. Aging and Hollywood don't go together when you try to push yourself into being a sexy siren.

Moulin Rouge was almost ten years ago when you were thirty. You can't really play a mother. No one ever sees you with your own children. So what are you left with? Well! Australia still loved her. So get the director who made her the most famous to make an epic about the homeland (we are supposed to forget she is actually an American) and have her star in it. Make deals with a hot internet photo site and a paparazzo that have the goods on her.

Then what about the husband? Well, there were rumors. He was a loose cannon and she had to get this controlled. She won him by promising him fame in the homeland by sitting at an awards show and getting world wide press by holding his hand.

She showed him he didn't have to record or tour or sing at a benefit. He was famous for being her date and that appealed to him. He married her and kept another life, but his demons were too much - it would ruin his life but, more importantly, it would ruin her plan to be famous for being part of this couple. That she and Keith were in love and the second time around for her would lead to more fame and establish them as a very powerful Australian commodity. When things got bad for him while she was out of the country, she had no choice. She swooped in, got him to a place that was famous and away from Nashville.

She then became the victim wife. She visited him, wow, at least three times in three months. She made more potential flops. And while her own true love was getting married in Italy to his child bride with her children watching she was sitting in a West LA movie theater watching Babel for the sixth time.

Keith was released from rehab in January, 2007. He said he couldn't wait to get out on the road to play again. He started doing a mini PR tour, not before he made his first appearance at a party with Nicole. He spent Valentine’s Day talking about his career. There appeared to be problems. He didn't really want to talk about her. He wanted to go to Australia and sing. Nicole was feeling what many were saying behind her back, that this relationship was nothing more than a PR stunt. Well, even in the midst of what appeared to be problems at the Oscars, she whisked him off for an 18 hour trip to St Bart's. The PR machine started again.

While he never talked about her that much before, now he can't shut up. She saved him. She was the one who got him the help he needed. His marriage was the best thing that ever happened. He looked so sincere about that. He really appears to love her, if you close your eyes and squint. She basks in this adulation. They will show Australia how a couple in love acts. They support each other. She goes to his shows over there and he is on her set. She "suggested" he get a tattoo of her name and damn if he didn't. Why, there is nothing wrong with her marriage!

Or is there? There is no photo evidence that he was even over there for her birthday and their anniversary. Private mansions and fireworks, yet not one picture. Of course, Nicole, you were reading what was being said because low and behold, Keith was there two weeks later, riding horses, going to birthday parties, and eating hot dogs. It made People so we know the love is real but a photo that many of you may not have seen from the evening of the birthday party reveals much more. It shows Keith and Nicky walking apart - he looking very pissed and she with a pout on her injected lips. A picture beats a thousand words doesn't it, Nic?

So, now her marriage is so secure and her career is in overdrive. Five movies in the next year alone! All Nic has to do is worry about her looks. She isn't the vivacious, lovely redhead from twenty years ago. She is botoxed, surgically altered - eyes, cheeks, bust, chin and lips. Her thinning gray hair is wigged in public and she keeps herself Karen Carpenter thin.

So, has it all been worth it? Well, Nic, I am sorry to say you are a joke. Your looks, marriage and career are all in question. You come across as a vapid airhead who seems to have gone to the same interview coach that the late Anna Nicole did. You keep putting out the same stupid movies that no one likes and your husband is spewing nonsense about you rather than talking about his real love – the music. Nothing that you have done has made you more special or more popular. It just makes you more visible and more and more are getting in on the joke... and that beautiful, beautiful princess… is you.....

That just about sums up my observations on the matter. The more pictures I see of them together and the more KU spouts that "she saved me" garbage the more I believe there is something wrong with this marriage. KU get a clue, you went to Rehab, you did the work and if you are still sober it's because you want to be, not because she is watching you every second of the day.

I'm sure Urban Myths appreciates your very insightful and thoughtful comments... just as I'm sure kidman appreciates you, and the "2 or 3" other people who pay to watch her movies... but not that I expect to to hear from the ironically named realitycheck from posting on this thread again...

Thats a very curious thought urban myths, the non pr photos of these so important events... I found it strange that on their first valentines day as a married couple, the "newlyweds" were in two different cities. Sort of reminds me of when kidman ditched the LA premiere of Stepford wives, instead going and presenting at the Tony awards... one theory being that she didnt want to watch the movie, so if asked about it she didnt have to admit that the movie sucked. Its a phsycological thing.

What? No conspracy theory on the paps being bought off for the pic's be offered up? That's what I'm going with. Of course Keith was there, of course there were fireworks whilst sitting on the hilltop on a overstuffed couch that the locals lovingly carried up the hill for them, of course the paps took pictures, of course NK paid the paps not to publish them, of course she'll tote them out at some later date. This is the MO, right?

I chose my name very carefully. Thats what everyone who agrees with this nonsense needs. All Urban Myths has done is taken dates and events, which we all know to be fact, and added her opinions. This blog is 2% dates and 98% ramblings.

Well realitycheck, if your claiming to be a check on reality, why dont you try offering what you claim to be the reality, instead of offering your "opinion" that this is all just drivel and nonsense. People form opinions by examining the dates and events that occur, and the only impression I get from you is that you are simply an opinionless and uninquisive kidman fan.

i'm laughing my head off at this one! i'm lovin ya maclen!!! so true.

and notbuyingitinnashville knows what they're talking about, believe me. i'm just sittin around drinking big red soda and munching on cheetohs, till this whole thing blows up in keith's face.....and it will, mind you, it will.....

Realitycheck if you think Urban Myths is so off base then why don't you state your opinion using the available information to support your theory. Everyone here is allowed to state their opinion regarding the subject, what's frowned upon is personal attacks on the other bloggers.

doublewide, perspone its obviously impossible to get any more of a telling clarification of what these one or two sentence commenters are trying to get proof of. I cant tell by their comments if they believe that kidmans movies are not flops... or that our opinions are only based on the dates or events that have been documented over the past years?... or that they just believe that kidman and urban will last forever and ever? Since nothing in they're comments ever tries to explain what point THEY are trying to convey, I am, more and more, finding them to be a bottomless pit of non information.

...nothing?well I'm on a roll. So let me throw out another "conspiracy" Ive just stumbled on. Just another little piece of what I believe is the mindset of kidman and that little game of lalaland chess, or in her case, more like checkers. Who else, with a show of hands, noticed the recent batch of tomkat photo ops with baby suri? I even think this past week of People mag. has holmes and baby on the cover. Well it seems kidman noticed, so, viola, heres comes this:

...most interesting is that set of three pics where shes standing in front of the front window holding the baby, and she slyly turns her head and peers out...and I'm wondering, at what? So, fellow practicioners of serious thought and reasoning, using your cognitive powers of deduction, what do you think she is peering out at the front window?

Do you think maybe, just maybe she is posing for the camera? I know it's a stretch to think she'd want her photo snapped by the paps (eye rolling goes here) so it's a good thing that baby's face was turned the other way now wasn't it.

I read the comments on the link maclen. Someone named colostomybag thinks NK is an amazing actress. That just makes me laugh out loud. I know it's childish but it seems so appropriate.

Damn, I was hoping the report on E! last night was going to turn out different in that NK actually did adopt a baby so we could move on to some new stuff and have some facts to debate instead of innuendo.

Notachance how about this for a fact, as Maclen pointed out it is extremely obvious that Ms. Kidman knows exactly where the camera is. Just look at how Ms. Kidman has framed herself within the two plants in front of the window, making sure that the baby is in the frame. It is my opinion that she has figured out that she can no longer play the Siren character in movies and is now making a serious move to get the people in Hollywood to think of her as maternal. Since her own children weren't available for the photoop, she borrowed her niece.

Funny, but NK doesn't need anyone to think of her as maternal. If she wants to do a maternal project, it's totally within her realm to make that happen. It would probably flop as most of her movies do, but for some reason she is capable of raising the funds necessary to pay herself millions and that's all she's after I'm afraid.

perspone, how likely do you think urban's statement that he and kidman will start their own family next year? When it seems she can just as easily use the sis's kid. And how many more movies is she considering doing for next year? IMDB claims at least two. I'm far more willing to believe what kidman does and what she will be doing, has absolutly no bearing on what urban states that he believes will happen, and that is, that he "hopes'" kidman will start a family with him next year.

Maclen, I honestly don't believe that either one of these people should be bringing a child into this relationship. Keith isn't even one year post rehab, I think he needs to focus on the work he needs to do within himself to keep himself on the sobriety path. Having a child can be a major stressor, and no matter how much he may want a child, it is my opinion that within the next year is not the right time. As for NK, it is my opinion that she likes the idea of a child, but that when it come right down to it NK's career is the most important thing in her life and having to raise a child would take away from that. NK news flash a child is not a fashion accessory, a child requires your guidance and attention, that means everything is not about you all the time.

perspone...I totally agree. My fear is that NK will decide to be a mother again, because it is quite trendy these days. Naomi just did it, and of course, there's her true loves' wife, Katie.

I don't know if it will be a biological child...because, assuming she's even capable, that actually would limit her career somewhat. At her age, she'd be high risk and would have to curtail her projects during part of the pregnancy. As soon as it's born, of course, she could dump it on a nanny and get back to making movies.

I actually fear that she'll adopt. No real energy or commitment there...just buy the kid and get the Nanny on staff. The PA can do most of that, other than the photo ops and signing on the dotted line.

I don't think Keith is ready for a child...because I actually think he'd take the role of father seriously and NK would put loads of pressure on him. He really needs a couple of sober years under his belt, I think, before having a child. But I doubt there will be any consideration of Keith's condition...it'll be whatever NK wants...as always...it'll be all about her.

Well and NK has found the perfect victim, because my instincts tell me that if Keith were to take responsibility for a child (biologically or by adoption) then he would be there for that child and at least try to provide the child with proper guidance. It appears NK looks for men willing to actually take an interest in the children and do all the raising of the children.

The cards are all starting to fall in place. Keith said in one of the radio interviews this week that he sold his house in Nashville and "they" are looking for land to build on (doubtful IMO). Coupled with her statement in the recent interview about not sure if they would be OZ based or not I'm thinking that is the case now and that a child is not far behind. I doubt she would ever have another child raised in this country.

1+1 = 2 NK, just because you didn't finish high school doesn't mean we can't do the math!

I seem to recall back in 03, when she hooked up with lenny kravitz, they were the talk of new york tabs...seems they met when she rented an apartment owned by kravitz because her manhattan apartment was being renovated. I also recall she said that she loved living in new york, because it was her kind of city... and couldnt imagine living anywhere else.,, at the time she was filming stepford wives in NY. Just after marrying urban, all the talk was how she was so happy just being a "nashville bride". I was even able to find a Vogue mag. online article where she states that... "I sat outside on our veranda reading my book yesterday, and I thought, I never imagined I'd end up here," she says. It's just two months after her Sydney wedding to country singer and fellow-antipodean Keith Urban... Well I guess urban's relapse and stint in rehab blew that little fairy tale scenario. Now it seems that an Aussie fairy tale ending is in the works... and wouldn't it be that coincidently, kidman is filming a movie in Australia

Or rather Urban Myths, she rides off on her broom stick, you know, the one from that ghastly Bewitched... and if it is the case they plan on building in "OZ", she'd be wise to stay away from the work site...lest the house was to fall on her. And come to think of it, doesnt this whole Aussie epic plan go back at least a year before she met urban. Lets see...google says eucalyptus with crowe fell through back in feb. 05, and then luhrmann came along with... wait for it, "Australia", now filming. And in between, kidman somehow ended up marrying an aussie... I say it couldn't have worked out any better if it had been planned.

maclen,Is she really that smart? When you hear her speak she certainly doesn't sound like she is very intelligent. Her inability to complete a sentence that wasn't written in a script really amazes me. Or is this just her acting? She's acting like an airhead. Secretly, she's a scholar and only her closest paid friends and her employee know this fact, right?

I dont think she has to be very smart, banbotox, as I've mentioned before I dont think her typical gimmicks of publicity have really helped her at all. Her bland, unintersting, shallow, meek and giggling persona thats revealed in her interviews certainly doesnt hint at all to an actually complex person in her real life. People can argue whether they like her movies or believe shes a good actress, but the actual performance of her past 8 movies would show that she has not been very successful. But I think that perception is there because they may read it in people or vogue magazine, or hear it on access hollywood or entertainment tonight. But again the performance doesnt support that. She's engaging in Celebrity 101, and celebrity by the numbers, nothing original... typical celeb charity work...celeb marriage, celeb family..etc.

Nicole Kidman: "I love trying my luck at casinos. I'm like a little old woman who puts my glasses on, and I watch what I'm doing and don't like anyone to talk to me. And I love the cocktails -- those apple martinis and cosmopolitans they bring around."

OSCAR WHISPERED RIGHT INTO MY EAR

February 26, 2008 - OSCARS. Boozing backstage during the Oscarcast is a no-no. But if you're pregnant Nicole Kidman it's a yes- yes. She wanted white wine. She got it...
